Many distinguished visitors from several military units

Many distinguished visitors from several military units visited Homer Junior High school and Norwich High School during the Innovative Readiness Training mission that is taking place in those locations. Among the visitors were Mr. Judd Lyons, Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Reserve Integration and Maj. Gen. William Lee, 3rd Medical Command Deployment Support, as well many other key leaders from the units that were participating and local government officials. This year’s Healthy Cortland & Greater Chenango Cares FY19 IRT mission is led by the Colorado Air National Guard, and is comprised of Advice Duty Air Force, Army, Navy, Reserves and National Guard troops working alongside our local community partners to bring health care and veterinary services to the underserved communities of Cortland and Chenango counties in New York. The training and readiness requirements being accomplished on this mission are mutually beneficial and provide extraordinary opportunity for the military members to give back to the local communities through no-cost medical care.
